Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 132

Many employees in the company knew Elspeth, and they could roughly remember that there was a man who turned up out of nowhere, saying that Elspeth was his wife. In the end, he just made a fool out of himself, but this time… looking at how desperate that woman was crying, she really might have been cheated on.

All the colleagues had a wait-and-see attitude, but only Elspeth stood alone, not far from them, with a calm face as though she wasn’t bothered at all.

After crying for some time, the woman noticed that she was being watched like a monkey in a zoo. Fright took over her, so she stopped crying and swiftly got up from the ground. “What excuse do you have, huh? You’re the one who seduced my husband first. Why are you quiet? Are you guilty?”

When Elspeth saw the woman bawling, she knew that this person wasn’t purposely causing a scene maliciously. Her husband had most likely cheated on her.

“Tell me. Who’s your husband?” She was a little troubled. It seems like I need to deal with another person’s family problem again.

“My husband is the key person in your company and the leader of the Technical Department, Evan Steward!” After she imitated the words that her husband said every time he returned home, it elicited an unexpected burst of laughter.

“What are y’all laughing at? What’s so funny?” She had a southern drawl, and though her words. were comprehensible, her tone sounded unsophisticated.

Instantly, the employees started whispering. “Mr. Steward looks so serious on the outside. I didn’t know that he has a wife.”

“He even blew his own horn in front of his wife. That’s hilarious,”

“I feel bad for his wife. She’s been fooled so badly. Pity her.”

Meanwhile, Elspeth took a deep breath before asking, “Are you really married to Evan Steward?”

Realizing that she was being doubted, the woman raised her voice. “Of course, it’s true. If you don’t believe me, I can return home now and grab our marriage certificate.”

“It’s okay. There’s no need for that. I believe you.” Elspeth shook her head. “But I still need to tell you this. I don’t know Mr. Steward, and neither do I have his number or follow him on any social platform.”

With disbelief written on her face, the woman gasped a little. “How is that possible? I saw him DM you on Instagram that night when he came home drunk. It was your name in the chat box. I

When Elspeth heard that, she arched her brows. “What happened then? Didn’t you confront

him?”

“Of course, I didn’t! My husband is a hardworking and conscientious man. So, it must have been you who seduced him first. I’ve read the messages, and the one who starts texting first is always you!”

Elspeth didn’t know how to react. “To be frank, I’ve never met Mr. Steward. But, Mrs. Steward, you can try asking my colleagues whether I have anything to do with him.”

Startled, the woman studied all the mocking gazes from all around her and decided to continue arguing. “I don’t care. They’re all on your side. I won’t believe them.”

“If so, can you tell me why I would hook up with your husband?”

With her chin lifted, the woman told Elspeth everything good about Evan. “Of course, it’s because he’s extraordinary. He’s good-looking, has a good temper, and works for such a big company. He even

received many awards. I think it’s normal for a woman to fall for him.”

At this moment, Elspeth rubbed her chin, making a thoughtful expression. “So, are you saying that he’s extraordinary?”

“Ain’t that it?” As her words resonated around the room, they elicited another burst of laughter.

“Do you know who my boyfriend is, then?”

It was obvious that the woman had no idea as she looked into Elspeth’s eyes blankly and asked, “Who’s your boyfriend?”

“My boyfriend is the president of this company. Now, you tell me. Whom will I choose? A handsome and rich president or an ordinary tech guy?”

The woman was misdirected as well. “Of course, a handsome and rich president.”

“That’s right. Now, am I pretty?” Elspeth smiled brightly at the woman.

Of course, the

man knew Elspeth was beautiful. She had eyes akin to the stars, as though they could touch one’s soul. Not only that, she had a mysterious aura with a bluish tint in her eyes. Most importantly, from her attire, she didn’t seem like a woman whom an ordinary man could lay hold off, so even when the woman knew that her husband was extraordinary, he might not be good enough for Elspeth.

“You are. You are very pretty.”

“So why would I fall for an ordinary man?” This was how confident Elspeth was. She deserved a fine man with any of her hidden identities, so why would she fall for a so-called ‘key person in

“Even when the president of this company has feelings for me, he needs to pursue me step by step. Who do you think your husband is for me to call him ‘darling?” Elspeth’s words were so impeccable that even Alaina was shocked, watching from the side.

Alaina had thought of several ways that Elspeth would counterattack. It might be using glib phrases to win the argument, asking people to throw the woman out, or confronting Evan straight away. Yet, she had never imagined that Elspeth would use such a confident and

outrageous way.

It was a useful tactic, as the woman was stunned after hearing all that. Then, the expression on her face turned perplexed. “So, who’s the person who slid into my husband’s DMs?”

As Elspeth lowered her head, she asked, “Do you know what’s her Instagram handle?”

With sudden realization, the woman replied, “Yes! I took the chance to note down her handle on my phone when my husband was asleep. Here!”

When Alaina heard that from the corner, her back was soaked in cold sweat instantly. Didn’t Evan say that his wife is illiterate? Why is she so smart? She even wrote down my handle. Isn’t this going to expose me for sure? RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

She took a few steps backward, preparing to leave the office. However, the moment the colleague beside her saw that she was in distress, he asked, “You don’t look so well, Miss Sullivan. Are you

sick?”

Awkwardly, Alaina chuckled. “Yes, I’m unwell. I’m thinking about going to the hospital.”

“Let me give you a ride. You’re cold-sweating.”

I should already be out of the office with the time I wasted on this small talk! Alaina was so pissed, but she still continued saying, “Thanks. It’s fine.” Within seconds, their voices grabbed Elspeth’s attention.

When she noticed that Alaina looked like she wanted to run away, she gradually took out her phone to compare the Instagram handle. As expected, it was Alaina’s doing.

Although she knew that it was Alaina, she still asked people around her with a surprised expression, “Can you guys tell whose handle this is? I can’t figure it out.”

As soon as her colleagues around her saw the ID, they recognized it immediately. “Isn’t this Alaina’s? I’m very familiar with her username. I even complimented her, saying that her handle is.nice.”

At once, Alaina’s action of running away came to a halt, and she felt embarrassed. Suddenly, an idea popped into her head, and her fingers moved swiftly across her phone. Now that I’ve changed my Instagram handle, no one can recognize that it’s me!
